10/10/10 dreams

Dream:
So I’m sure that I had more dreams but this is the 1 that I remember.  I was in an old house.  It was white and it smelled really bad.  I guess this old lady was moving (I’m not sure sure) but I was instructed to get all of my stuff out of there.  There was no air conditioning and it was Memorial Day weekend.  I remember that because one of the people helping said that we’d be done by Monday, Memorial Day.  The house itself was disgusting inside.  it smelled soooo bad.  It smelled like cigarette smoke and whatever old houses smell like.  I was in the attic and all I remember was wanting to finish up and get the hell out of there.  I put stuff in this old suitcase I found that didn’t even have a handle.  I was debating on whether or not we should paint the house.  The outside looked like it had just been painted but the inside was a different story.  And then the old lady lit up a cigarette and started smoking.

My Interpretation:
I think this has to do with leaving the past behind.  The old house that is worn and tired is getting a huge makeover.  I’m not sure what Memorial Day weekend means, maybe “remembering” what a mess I used to be?  The old lady smoking is kinda funny to me.  She’s smoking, bossing people around, and all around being her busybody self.  Like my gramma used to be right up until she passed away.  I think the attic symbolizes I’m in a higher place than I was before, yet still holding onto stuff from the past, like memories I don’t want to forget and feelings I want to remember.
